Lucas, Lucus genealogy at The Lost Colony Research Group

1. Your kit number __17468______________________________________

2. Your name ____Living______________________

3. Why did you join the Lost Colony project?

To see if there is a link between our Lucas line and the Lucas who came over as a member of the expedition of the Lost Colony.

4. How is your Y-line DNA line connected to the colonists, the surnames, Native people or the location?

To be determined.

5. Please provide a brief writeup (2 paragraphs to one page in length) on your line that has DNA tested!

My first known ancestor is John Lucas who received a land grant in Dobbs County, NC 1779. Through DNA he is related to the Lucas family of Sampson and Robeson Counties NC. It is thought John Lucas of Dobbs County descends from John Lucas born ca 1740 settled in New Hanover/Sampson County NC and who was listed on the taxpayers list of Sampson County 1784. DNA proved relatives of John Lucas of Dobbs County were Lewis born ca 1740 died after 1790 Sampson County, Charles born 1747 died South Carolina, and Joseph Lucas born 1760 died 1817 Wayne County. All these Lucases are thought to descend from John Lucas of New Hanover/Sampson County.

I did try to recruit some Lucases from Chocowinity but all my letters were returned as undeliverable. I think I recall that a William Lucas was one of the Lost Colony settlers and I was trying to locate a DNA pattern from a descendant to see if the Lucases from North and South Carolina were related possibly.

My Lucas lineage can be seen at: http://lucas-family.org/ see John Lucas He first appears in NC prior to 1779 and was related to a Lucas in Cumberland and Robeson County, NC. - Charles and Lewis Lucas who appeared about the same time. The DNA pattern shows a value of 22 for marker 390 which makes the pattern rather unique and seems to have first been found in northeastern present day Germany. All my genealogy to date can be found at:

Hi Roberta:
